I just tried the variable substitution solution. It only works on
"option values".
I can't use a variable for a class name, ie the configurator will
complain of not being able to instantiate that class.
I set variables on top of the configuration file and didn't try the
log4j.properties way.
Anyway, It solved part of the problem.
Thanks to all,
Jin
